which integral below is equivalent to the given integral, ∫(√(x^5)/3) dx?\n∫(3x^(5/2)) dx\n∫((1/3)x^5) dx\n∫((1/3)x^2) dx\n∫((1/3)x^(5/2)) dx
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Rewrite the square - root as a fractional exponent
Recall that $\sqrt{x^5}=x^{\frac{5}{2}}$. So the integral $\int(\frac{\sqrt{x^5}}{3})dx=\int(\frac{x^{\frac{5}{2}}}{3})dx$.
Step2: Use the constant - multiple rule of integration
The constant - multiple rule states that $\int cf(x)dx = c\int f(x)dx$ for a constant $c$. Here $c = \frac{1}{3}$, so $\int(\frac{x^{\frac{5}{2}}}{3})dx=\int(\frac{1}{3}x^{\frac{5}{2}})dx$.
Answer:
$\int(\frac{1}{3}x^{\frac{5}{2}})dx$ (the fourth option)
